Abstract

In recent years, a definite change towards organ-sparing, reconstructive local treatment of penile cancer has been observed. Surgical treatment aims to achieve margin-free resections with risk-adapted much smaller safety margins. Thus, the penile structures are preserved as far as possible or reconstructed in order to achieve a functionally and cosmetically satisfactory result. The oncological safety concerning tumor-free survival is not compromised. However, a higher rate of local recurrences has to be accepted.
